If there seems
to
be no leak, check to see if the electric engine fans are
running. If the engine is overheating, both fans should be running.
If
they
aren't, your vehicle needs service.
How to Add Coolant to the Coolant Surge Tank
If you haven't found a problem yet, but the coolant level isn't at or above
"FULL COLD," add a 50/50 mixture
of
clean water (preferably distilled)
and a proper antifreeze at the coolant recovery tank. (See "Engine
Coolant" in the Index for more information about the proper coolant
mix.)
I
A
CAUTION:
Adding only plain water to your cooling system can be
dangerous. Plain water, or some other liquid like alcohol, can
boil before the proper coolant mix will. Your vehicle's coolant
warning system is set for the proper coolant
mix. With plain
water or the wrong mix, your engine could get too hot but you
wouldn't get the overheat warning. Your engine could catch fire
and you or others could be burned. Use a 50/50 mix of clean
water -nd a proper antifreeze.
